Most songs are based on 8 bars. When I was first taking group instruction in 3rd grade I would count but soon it went away and you could anticipate it. Very easy to do with rock, jazz, or blues. Back then - from 8 to 28 - I could sit in pretty much any band and without even knowing the song be able to provide fills and transition when appropriate by just listening and anticipating. Good songs are a story and like many stories they have a structure. Only in rare instances would you find a really popular piece not fit into the structure (like We Will rock You - Queen)
